Nice writeup, except for the implication that group A will determine the best zerg, while it's not even questionable, yet.

Also, it feels like you aren't giving Canata enough credit. He has been winning lately and playing decently in all three matchups. I feel like he will make it to the next round easily.

I thought I repped Canata pretty well, all things considered. I do expect him to qualify and he has been playing solid SC lately, but it's hard to have faith in someone with such a long history of failing at approximately the Ro16 in every Starleague he's ever qualified for.

Thanks for all of the comments guys, I'm really glad you enjoyed this article!

JWD,

Jaedong's decision to pull his white-hot CJ rival into Group A seems questionable (if it's a Zerg opponent he wanted, Type-b or Kwanro would do), but I think it's actually Flash who will regret his performance at last week's Group Selection Ceremony most.



I was under the impression that JD did not want a Zerg opponent, but picked Effort precisely because he was playing so well and got a win off of him. So I don't see how it's questionable in the sense that Jaedong simply wants to play Effort straight away, perhaps (though I personally doubt it) jeopardizing his Ro8 berth.

Aside from that fussy point, excellent writeup.

You are correct, JD did say in the group selections that he DIDN'T want to play zvz, but picked effort only because he was playing so well, and had taken a game off of him. Jaedong then said that he hopes effort will not pick another zerg, so he can steer clear of zvz's

Excellent writeup, really liked the chutes & ladders section ;D it's always fun to read other people's predictions, though now it seems they went somewhat wrong but being right is not the point.

Ah thanks for the information guys. My bit about JD wanting a Zerg opponent was just speculation - now I know (my fault for not reading all of the Group Selection Ceremony translation).

lol @ bisu + go.go.

The snakes and ladders analogy was awesome.

Thanks JWD.

I just don't get this. It's seriously giving me a headache -- how can, just, how can go.go have fans?! It just doesn't make sense. I mean, I know Bisu can have anti-fans, but...Go.go can't have regular fans, he's go.go!

Leta is overrated, I dont remember the last game he won where he didn't cheese. I expect Canata to roll him (as well as kwanro, maybe by.hero). Group D is by far the closest group of the lot imo. Jaedong will lose in Group A, he carries the burden of the winners curse. EffOrt will win the group 3-0 with Flash coming in second. go.go is going to cheese Bisu and everyone's going to be like "Bisu -.-!!!"



This was a failed prediction.
